Again on reproducible research

I've got this from a post on linked-in by Mariza Costa-Cabral, author of a pioneering paper on digital elevation models, and now senior scientists at Northwest Hydraulic Consultants, Inc.:

"I hope this is the start of something good for the sake of reproducibility of research: Mozilla analysis of scientific software. And if such automated or semi-automated debugging can be done, then I hope we can get to use it much BEFORE submitting the paper! :-) Imagine, how great it would be to get help with debugging! Also, please read the particularly sensible 2010 article by Nick Barnes: "

The paper had several comments around the web, including those by Titus Brown. Here further posts of mine on the same topic.
